which is -:desi-gned to grip the posts of the so asjto 'pullthe elements or the battery elements out o f't'he battery box.
Another object of the invention is to make m the parts adjustable so that they w i l ly'fit different sizes of batteries.
still further object of the invention is to so form the casing that battery can easily placed therein and removed there- This invention also consists in 'o'entain "other features of construction and lthe combination and arrangement of the several parts, to be hereinafter fully described, il-
lus-trated in the accompanying drawings and specifically pointed out in appended claims.
In describing my invention in detail, reiterence Will be had to the-accompanying drawings wherein like characters denote like or corresponding PtLRtStl-ITOUghOHt the several views, and in which z Figure 1 is a perspective vi vice, with-the front lowered." I
Figure 2 is a vertical sectional view, 1 Figure 3 isan end view Withf'the cover plate of the gear casing removed. Figure L is 'atransverse sectional vview wit-lithe casing closed. l s
Figure 5 i a side view of emer ing, showing the' same expanded.
Figure 6 is a 'view'of'the telescopic shaft with a gear at each end thereof. I I Inthese views, 1 indicates a c-as ing' w hich is provided with a side 2 hinged at its bottom and a movable end 3 which hasa bottom piece 4 slidably arranged on the bottom of the casing through means of the guides 5, -feet 6 being connected. with the bottom of the casing and with the bottom piece 4. The side 2 is held in closed position by the latcl'i members 7 and a bar 8 has one end fastened to the movable end 3 and this bar passes through the guides 9 on the immovable side of the casing, the bar being held in adjusted position by means of the thumb screws 10 passing through threaded holes in the guides 9., A. latch bar 11 is slidably arranged in a guide 12 on the the turn screw 13 passing through said ew of the side 2 and is held in adjusted position byguide and the hooked end of this bar is adapted itoengage a latch' member 14 on (the iina djus't'ed"position means of the bar-s '8 and 11. I d V i A flanged piece 15 is .adj usta'bly connected with :each side of the casing through means of the bolt and thumb nuts l6' engaging slots 17 in each side and passing through holes in the Eflangedv piece, the flanges of these pieces being adaptedto engage ithe top -edges "of a battery box to hold the same in the casing.
By making the end 3 adjustable, the casing can -be adjusted to fit difeirent sizes of bat- :-movzvble end 3 so that the end can be held tery boxes and in orderj to make the casing hoildboxes ofnarrower width, springs 18 on the inner Walls of the sides of easing which have tabs 19 ithe'neon to engage sides of A housing 20 is termed each end "of the casing, Ieac'h housing being provided with'a removable cover plate 21 and each housing getaways 22 vertically arranged rack 23. of gears 24 is jo urnaled in each housing, the gears meshing With-the teeth of theraick bar and-a telescopic shaft as has itsends journaled in extensions 20" of the housings and has gears -26 fastened-wits ends, 'ea'chgear S26 meshing Withone of the gears 2i inea'ch housing.
I place A crank handle 27 connected with one end of the telescopic shaftso that by turning this handla-the "shaftwill be rotated, and its movement Wili beieommnnicate'd to the ge ars 24 130 move the rack bars vertically.
A yokezQS, formed of two telescopic sections, has its limbs adju'stably connected with the upper ends of the rack bars through means of the-pins '29 'eng'aging the holes 30 and the collars 31.
Bars 32 are each'swiveledcn an eye member 33=which are mounted on the yoke 28, sov that they can bem'oved on said yoke and each bar has a'pair of eye members 34 thereon, each eye member having a block 35 pivoted thereto and each block is connected by apair of links 36 with the upper end of a gripping member 37, each gripping member being composed of two parts pivotally connected together and having semi-circular toothed jaws 38 at their lower ends. A spring 39 tendsvto hold the jaws in closedposition.
A battery box, the elements of which are to be removed, is placed in the casing, after the same has been adjustedto fit the box and then the end 2 is closed, it being understood that the flanges of the members 15 must engage the upper edges of the box. Then the jaws 38 are placed over the posts of the elements and then the crank handle is turned to move the rackbars and the yoke upwardly. As the gripping members are carried upwardly with the yoke, the jaws 38 will be caused to grip the post more firmly, and as the yoke continues to move upwardly, the gripping members will pull the elements from the box. It will, of course, be understood that the various parts must be adjusted to place the gripping means directly over the post, but this can be done by sliding the gripping means onthe bars 32 and adjusting the bars on the yoke. By making the parts adjustable, the device can be used with various) sizes and types of battery boxes, and it will also be understood that the device can be used for removing a single element or any numberof elements of a battery.
It is thought from the foregoing description that the advantages and novel features of my invention will be readily apparent.
I desire it to be understood that I ma make changes in the construction and in the combination and arrangement of the several parts, provided that such changes fall within the scope of the appended claims.
What I claim is 1. A device of the class described comprising a casing, means for holding a battery box therein, a member movably supported bythe casingand extending above the same, gripping means carried by said member for gripping the posts of the bat tery elements and means for raising the memher to cause said gripping means to pull the elements from the box.
2. A device of the class described comprising a casing, means for holding a bat- .tery box therein, a yoke member movably supported at the ends of the casing, manually operated means for raising the yoke member, rods movably supported by the yoke member and gripping members movably supported on the rods and adapted to engage posts of the battery elements to pull said elements from the box.
3. A device of the class described comprising a casing, flanged members adjust ably connected therewith, the flanges of said members engaging the edges of a battery post to hold the same in the casing, a yoke member movably arranged at the ends of the casing, manually operated means for rais ing the yoke member and gripping members carried by the yoke member for engaging posts of the battery elements to pull the same from. the box when the yOkemember is ralsed. I
i; A device of the class described comprisinga casing having a side hinged to its 5. A device of the class described comprising a casing, means for holding a batterv box thereln a 'oke member rack bars 'adjustably connected with the limbs of the yoke member, gearsjournaled on some of .therside wallsof the casing and meshing with the teeth of the rack bars, a shaft ournaled at one side of the casing, gears thereon meshing with the other gears, a handle connected with the'shaft and gripping means carried by the yoke member. v r 6. A device of the class described comprising a casing, means for adjusting the length of the same, one side of the casing being hingedly connected with the bottom thereof, a telescopic shaft journaled at one side of the casing, gears .on the endsv of the shaft, a handle connected with one end of the shalt, a telescopic yoke member, rack bars adjustably connected with the limbs of the yoke member, guiding means at the ends of the casing for the rack bars, gears journaled to the ends ofthe casing for engaging the teeth of the rack bars, some of said gears meshing with the gears on the shaft, bars slidably mounted on the yoke member and gripping membersslidably arranged on the bars for engaging the posts of a battery.
In testimony whereof I afiix my signature.
